Abstract
A lane following assist apparatus and a control method thereof are provided. The lane following assist apparatus includes a camera that captures an image in front of a vehicle and a processor that receives a forward image from the camera. The processor obtains line information from the forward image, calculates a vehicle offset based on the line information, variably sets a target look-ahead distance depending on whether the vehicle offset is greater than a threshold, and performs lane following assist control using the target look-ahead distance.
